Yessir.

A cabal that exclusively channels one archetype: In
Tupelo, the're a bunch of Elvis Iconomancers and
channellers of the True King: The King of Kings.

But I'd rather have individual archetypes, leaving the
group to cross-fertilise amongst themselves so they
can all try and ascend as alternatives to their own
channelled archetypes.

For example: Dermott Arkane: who wants to be the
Heisenberg Messenger is in a cabal of avatars. ALl the
avatars like Arkane's message and take on similar
roles with their own archetypes:

The Healer becomes the Hypothetical Diagnoser.
The Chronicler becomes the Taboild Sensationalist.
The Mother becomes the Guiltmongering Dominatrix.
The MVP becomes the Listed Celebrity.

It doesn't stop them channelling their true archetypes
but they've all focused on a theme of uncertainty
within their cabal.

How's that?

Chris.
